Star Star are generally held as a glam/hair metal band, but the truth is, they
are far too punk to fit this category. Imagine the New
York Dolls covering Faster Pussycat songs with a touch of Iggy & the Stooges and T.Rex and you'll get a mental picture of what "The Love Drag Years" sounds like. The
band sports a ton of attitude. Unfortunately I think they were a bit too punk
for most of the glam rockers, and a bit too glam for the punk rockers, so they
sort of painted themselves into a corner. I find the album to be a fun listen.
Standout cuts are "Groovy Guru Gangster Girl", "Diggy Dragster", "Fly Boy",
the campy "Cowboys In Space" and the smokin' Alice
Cooper cover "Nervous".
